Jake ran in the 1st of 3 Discrete races this summer. This one was at Deer Valley. It was 9 miles. He took 3rd place in the expert division. He came in 16th out of 235. So awesome!! When he came in at the finish the guy putting the medal over his neck said what you must be 22? He said no I'm 17. WOW! They were quite impressed with how fast Jake is for his age! :) He won some prizes for taking 3rd. He was also drawn for the raffle prize and won a hydrated under armor water pack, trail running shoes and shirt. Seriously how lucky is he? Definitely takes after his dad! His buddies Ethan and Ezra ran too so it was fun for Jake to have someone go up there with. It sure is nice watching him finish these races. It's a great excuse to get us up in the beautiful mountains! :)
